I can see advantages to length, actually: it's often unclear
whether "end" is of the "last-of-this" or "start-of-next" variety;
in most of mm we are consistent in using end in the start-of-next
sense, but here truncate_inode_pages_range() itself has gone for
the last-of-this meaning.
I really do agree with this paragraph and this is why I like the "length"
argument better. So if there is no objections I'll stick with it and
fix the other things you've pointed out.
Okay
Hugh
